I thought that you had 99.5% nailed it until I saw the burr/fin in the Norton pix.

I thought that you had 99.5% nailed it until I saw the burr/fin in the Norton pix.
Actually, to my eye that is not a burr or fin. I think it is a part of the 4k bevel that does not go all the way to the edge. That is why I asked about the taping. If the tape near the heel end of the spine wore down, that would cause the edge to not reach the hone.
Possibly fresh tape & a few more strokes will correct that.
Two new layers of tape on the 2k and then 4K. I was having trouble getting good coverage on the toe (pic #4), and ended up doing more strokes on the 4K.Quote:

I can work on the 4K some more tomorrow.
Yep. Looking at it on this monitor, I can see that now. A few strokes short of perfection.Quote:

I was only thinking in terms of honing until I read this; but you just had to take it to the gutter.Quote:

Still looks like a few light horizontal lines, and the middle is better on the right side (when looking at the edge with the heel towards me.
